Predicted Result: Eibar 2 – 1 Alaves
Match Preview: SD Eibar failed to make an impressive start to the season. Neither their home matches nor the away games went on their favor so far. They may feel a lack of confidence. Thus they need to make a strong comeback. So it’ll be interesting to see which kind of style their manager opts to play. Conversely, Alaves will be playing away from home. But Eibar’s recent form may give them the charm. So they should play for all the match points.
Both sides match each other and it gives me a feeling that, a competitive game is on the card. I am also backing each of the side to score. Finally, my pick is a home victory for the Gunsmiths.
